(They took out the "r"). Anyways, can you please modify the program to accommodate this change? Thank you - your tool is wonderful, I've used it multiple times in the past!

This is such a great concept, thanks for taking the time to develop this!

Unfortunately, I can’t generate a PowerPoint, although I’m accessing the tool from IE7 with the MSXML parser installed. I get the following error:

Error: On char #0 of line #0, MSXML gave the following error: XML document must have a top level element.

Do you know what’s amiss?

Thanks,
Shaun
